I dreamed I had an interview with GOD.

“So you would like to
interview me?”
GOD asked

“If you have the time,” I said.

GOD smiled.

“My time is eternity… what questions do you have in mind for me?”

“What surprises you most about humankind?”

GOD answered…

“That they get bored with childhood,they rush to grow up, and then long to be children again…”

“That they lose their health to make money…and they lose their money to restore their health.”


“That by thinking anxiously about future, they forget the present, such that they live in neither the present nor the future.”

“That they live as if they will never die,and die as though they had never lived.”


GOD’s hand took mine
and we were silent for awhile.

And then I asked,

“As a parent, what are some of life’s lessons You want Your children to learn?”

“To learn that they cannot make anyone love them.
All they can do is let themselves be loved.”

“To learn that it is not good
to compare themselves to others.”

“To learn to forgive
by practicing forgiveness.”


“To learn that it only takes a few seconds
to open profound wounds
in those they love,
and it can take many years to heal them.”


“To learn that a rich person is
not the one who has the most,
but is one who needs the least.”


“To learn that there are people who love them dearly,
but simply do not yet know
how
to express or show their feelings.”


“To learn that two people can look
at the same thing
and see it differently.”



“To learn that it is not enough
that they forgive one another,
but they must also forgive themselves.”


“Thank you for your time,”
I said humbly.

“Is there anything else You’d like Your children to know?”

GOD smiled and said…

“Just know that I am here.”

“Always.”

    I love His closing words,

    "Just know that I am here"

    "Always"

    Madalas marami sa atin na nakakalimot sa Kanya, madalas, naigugugol ng karamihan ang kanilang atensyon sa mga materyal na bagay sa daigidig, at hindi nabibigyan halaga ang Panginoon.

    Tutuo lahat ng mga sinabi sa iyong panulat. Pero nananatili pa rin na naririyan si Bro, naghihintay sa bawa't isa sa atin.

    Very inspiring. God bless you.

    If I were to interview God I'd ask Him when will He erase poverty in the world.

    Bigat!

    And I agree: He is always here. Around us. Near us. Within us.

    May mga Bible verses kayang pinagkunan nitong mga 'answers' ni God?

    Maganda.

     
  8. A-Z-E-L On 09 July, 2009 11:31

    yes, very inspiring ang story na to... kaya i never had a second thought na i-share sa lahat...

    doc RJ, i still don't know kung anong verses sa Bible galing ang mga sagot ni Bro... and even don't know if it was adopted from there... in case not, the words are so TRUE... maganda. mabigat. malaman. totoo.

    If I have a special chance to interview God, I'll ask these questions.

    If You care, why do You let bad things happen?
    If You know the outcome, what's the purpose of creation?

    I see.. nabasa ko yun sa libro ni Maxwell, I mean the highlighted statement from my post.. But it's nice to read posts like this here.. Ang alam ko nabasa ko na rin to dati.. Very striking noh?

    Yes, alam ko hndi magiging madali, yung pagpunta ko pa lang dito mahirap na, mag stay pa. But then, I'm too blessed to be impressed by how God moves in our lives.. Nakakatuwa. Hindi man mawawala ang konting takot or doubts and negativity ayoko lang magdwell dun.. Thanks for keeping my hopes up.. Siguro isa ka sa mga hihingan ko ng advice pag mejo nalulungkot ako.. Kung okay lang sa'yo.. ^_^

    Wish you all the best too AZEL!

    KOREK yungg sinasabing they live as if they never die and die as if they never lived.

    Thats why I quit a high paying job, because I dont see my life in it.
    Like a zombie, no life, really a dead person but moving.

    Im happier now, 17days na lang, la na ako work, yeheey,opps!

     
  19. DETH On 14 July, 2009 09:57

    thanks for sharing, minsan kelangan talaga paalalahanan tayo ni Bro tungkol sa mga bagay na tinatake for granted naten...

    at ipaalala sa atin na palagi lang syang andyan:D

    thanks azel:D
